### [v1.c6.3383](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c6.3383)

The Lalita Vistara has two versions of Asita’s prophecy, one in prose and one in verse, which, in their chief details, differ but slightly from the Pāli version. In the former his nephew is called Naradatta, and Asita himself is represented as being a great sage dwelling in the Himālaya but unknown to Suddhodana.
